I had one that lasted for 12 years. By the end it was more of a media centre connected to my TV, but still.

3dfx Voodoo2, followed by a Riva tnt2. Good times were had.

The worst about ideation for me is that a few days/weeks/months later, I’m almost always thinking “I was willing to do that? Because of XYZ? That would’ve been so fucking stupid!”

But in the moment your brain can just be like “topping yourself is clearly the only logical solution” and make you actually believe that shit.

It’s wild.

Sorry, I realise this is a bit off topic.

The word hang up threw me off a little given the context

I used to be very skinny, like 58 kgs at 186. I met my wife when I was 18 and she loves skinny dudes 😂

Regardless, I did feel self conscious about my skininess because I was bullied for it in school. I’ve both accepted myself, but I also gained about 15kg of muscle by doing starting strength. I’m by no means ripped, but I do feel like I carry myself with more confidence and that goes a long way.

Also, my dude, take this from someone in a 20 year relationship… Looks are neat and all, but finding someone you can actually stand, spend a lot of time and plan a life with is a significantly more worthwhile trait to pursue.

I know I’m in the wrong for missing her text

You are not.

Your partner has some issues she seems to need to work through. Entertaining her delusions probably won’t help her.

My off lease laptop is literally my three year old work laptop. It is a very sturdy HP laptop with 16 GB of ramm, a 512mb SSD and a pretty decent i7 processor. The body is very sturdy and the screen is excellent. I paid about 180 dollars for it.

Companies usually don’t buy their laptops, screens and other hardware, but lease them from companies that then service the hardware.

When a company upgrades lots of the hardware is then sold by the leasing agency to the public for very favourable prices.

Ex lease laptops and monitors are also often very good deals!

The monitors often come with very well adjustable stands that are much more ergonomic. The laptops are often very high build quality and perfect for regular home office use.

Lol I’m not in a country that operates like that.

They have a lot of experience disposing of lots of bodies efficiently. They’ll sort op out.

Just gave the vet a ring but it seems to be paid for already

Yeah I don’t want to make our relationship murky by expecting her to work for me and get paid for it. Especially because we already help each other out with minor things anyway

That’s awesome. Thanks.

Off to get one now 😄

Sorry you’re being down voted. It’s a legit option. The reason I do think it’s a less appropriate option is because we’ve already been doing things for each other for free (watering plants and stuff) so “hiring” her would make that relationship transactional all of a sudden.

I’ve not done anything yet. I’m asking for advice about how to help my neighbour in a respectful way.

Ahh I do know her a little bit and know she’s been struggling a bit to find work. But you’re right. I’ll help Stevie out and will try not to overthink.

Thanks. I think I’m overthinking this. I’ve never been in a place in life where I would be able to help people like this but I’ve caught a few lucky breaks career wise where I get to so a job I love that also happens to pay very well… So this is new territory for me.
